Is PRFM the same as PRP?

PRFM and PRP are related, but they are not exactly the same. PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma, while PRFM stands for platelet-rich fibrin matrix. At Roots of Nature Aesthetic & Wellness, we choose to use PRFM over PRP for our vampire facial in Lee’s Summit because it releases growth factors over several days rather than all at once and has a fibrin matrix to hold platelets in place.

How long does recovery take after microneedling with PRFM?

Recovery usually takes about 5 to 7 days, though timing varies by patient and treatment area. Your skin may look red, feel sensitive, or appear dry as it settles. If you’re planning a vampire facial in Lee’s Summit around work, travel, or an event, we’ll help you think through timing.

Are there any pre or post-care instructions for treatment?

Yes. Before your vampire facial in Lee’s Summit, our team may recommend avoiding harsh exfoliants or active products, depending on your skin. After treatment, keep your skin protected, hydrated, and away from direct UV exposure while it recovers.

How Microneedling With PFRM Works

Opening the Repair Path

Your provider uses the SkinPen microneedling device to create tiny, controlled channels in the skin. These channels signal your natural repair process and create a pathway for PRFM to support deeper skin renewal.

Added Regenerative Support

PRFM, or platelet-rich fibrin matrix, comes from your own blood. Your provider applies it with microneedling to support collagen renewal and healthier-looking skin.

Benefits & Expected Results

Smoothing Texture

Treatment may soften roughness, uneven tone, and acne scars as collagen develops.

Longer-Lasting Support

PRFM adds platelet-rich support to help enhance the skin renewal process beyond standard microneedling.

Comprehensive Collagen Renewal

SkinPen and PRFM work together to support firmer, healthier-looking skin.

Who May Benefit Most

PRFM microneedling may be a good option if you’re looking to improve acne scars, uneven skin texture, fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, or early signs of aging. By combining microneedling with your body’s own platelet-rich fibrin matrix, this treatment enhances your skin’s natural healing response and supports collagen production. It’s an excellent choice for patients who want a more regenerative approach to skin rejuvenation than microneedling alone.

What Your Visit Looks Like

Prepare Your PRFM

Your provider prepares PRFM from a small blood sample, creating platelet-rich support for your skin.

Cleanse & Numb

Your aesthetician cleanses the treatment area and applies lidocaine cream to help keep the SkinPen microneedling treatment more comfortable.

Treat & Guide

After SkinPen microneedling treatment, your provider applies PRFM to the treated skin. Before you leave, we review recovery and home care. Our team provides all patients with aftercare products.

This place is awesome! I have had a lip problem spot for years and been to every kind of doctor there is. No-one would try to remove it for me. Roots of Nature removed it with laser treatment, no problems and at a very reasonable price. The folks at Roots of Nature are very professional, know what they are doing and are very good at any skin issues you may have. Kinley is an expert at the IPL treatments.

- Limbo P.

Throughout my life, I've struggled with weight issues. As a Division 1 athlete, I was able to manage my weight effectively, but after my sports career ended, I became less active and gained over 200 pounds, which severely impacted my quality of life. For years, I tried various methods to lose weight without success, until I discovered Roots of Nature Aesthetic & Wellness. A year later, I walked in using a cane, but now I've lost 70 pounds and no longer need it. I highly recommend Roots of Nature Aesthetic & Wellness for anyone looking to improve their health.
